Great post Wagner. Definitely a good move by the mayor. It's obvious they used excessive force. As far as the gun man now being in the car, it's hard to believe that any officer who believes there is a gun in the car would charge the vehicle without fear and open the door.

If the men arrested are guilty of something that day, they deserve the proper punishment - but not the beating before they are allowed to stand trial.

Authorities want to know whether the officers' emotions over Liczbinski's death -- and their desire to apprehend the suspect who remains at large -- had a role in their actions.

Stress levels among officers on the street are "simply too high," and the department aims to eliminate 12-hour shifts, Ramsey said soon after the incident.

Ummm... really? Like you actually have to ask that?
